Regardless of the unstable global economies, there is no doubt that 2024 was an incredible year for property prices in M\u00e1laga Province (including the Costa del Sol) property market. The cost of buying a property in M\u00e1laga in 2024, has risen by 8.3 per cent, with the highest increases in sought-after locations such as the Golden Triangle of Marbella, Benahavis and Estepona. Both premium and mid-range properties both saw increased interest, amongst international investors, foreigners looking for a second home and also the growing number of digital nomads attracted to Spain\u2019s sunshine lifestyle.<\/p>

Bankinter reports that over the last 10 years since the property market crash in 2014, house prices in Spain have almost increased by an astounding 56 per cent. This upward trajectory is expected to continue throughout 2025, for both property sales prices and rentals, due to growing demand.<\/p>

Demand for property is growing due to a number of contributing local factors, Caixa Bank suggests that the stronger economy (Spain\u2019s GDP increased by 2.5 per cent in 2024), controlled inflation, higher rates of employment, lower household debt and increased household savings.\u00a0 The recent drop in interest rates also allows easier access to mortgages, encourages sectors of society who historically wouldn\u2019t have access to credit. Even with the end of the Golden Visa scheme, there is a consistently high demand amongst the aforementioned foreign buyers from Europe, the Middle East, Asia and the USA.<\/p>

The Center for City Development policy identified two main groups of buyers who are dominating the Spanish property market; Spanish middle classes who are taking advantage of the more accessible credit and the above mentioned wealthy international buyers, who are sourcing luxury property in Marbella<\/a> and similarly sought-after coastal areas.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

M\u00e1laga\u2019s property market has been relatively untouched by the recent cost of living crisis as around 40 per cent of property purchases were cash transactions (INE statistics).

The Golden Triangle provides a clear snapshot of the uptick in house prices on the Costa del Sol, clearly illustrating the dramatic increases over the last 12 months. Statistics published on Indomnio.es, show that in Estepona, the average property price per square metre was 3,901\u20ac in October 2024 which equates to an astonishing increase of 14.47 per cent compared to December 2023. The average price of Benahav\u00eds property for sale is 5,060\u20ac, representing a 12.52 per cent increase from December 2023 to October 2024.

BBVA research has also established that property prices are expected to continue rise, due to the shortage of housing stock in certain areas (due to multiple factors, including labour, regulations and a lack of suitable land).<\/p>

Tinsa, Spain\u2019s largest property valuation company, recently published the results of its research and analysis spanning all provinces, which shows that the constant demand and limited supply of housing stock, has pushed property prices beyond the 30 per cent affordability threshold.\u00a0 M\u00e1laga is one of the five provinces identified as having the most expensive property prices which equates to a theoretical affordability rate of around 60 per cent of the average salary.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
